Peronospora arabidis-hirsutae is an obligate plant pathogen causing downy mildew disease on Arabidopsis and related crucifers. It inhabits infected leaf tissue of host plants in temperate environments where Arabidopsis and related plants grow. This oomycete parasite spreads through asexual sporangia during wet conditions and forms persistent oospores in infected plant debris.
Peronospora debaryi is a downy mildew oomycete pathogen that infects plants in the carrot family (Apiaceae), causing yellowing and distortion of infected leaves with a greyish downy growth on lower surfaces. This obligate biotroph completes its life cycle within living host plant tissue. It is found across temperate regions wherever susceptible host plants grow in moist conditions.
